(43) Attadipa Ý Be a Light for Yourself
1. I heard thus. At one time the Blessed One was living in the monastery offered by Anathapindika in Jeta's grove in Savatthi.
2. From there the Blessed One addressed the monks:
3. ßMonks, abide becoming a light and refuge to your self, not searching another refuge; consider the Teaching as a light, a refuge, and do not search another Teaching.
4. ßMonks, the monk who abides becoming a light and refuge to his self, not searching another refuge, considering the Teaching as his light and refuge, not searching another Teaching, should investigate wisely.
5. ßHe should investigate the root cause for the arising of grief, lament, unpleasantness, displeasure, and distress and investigate from what they proceed.
6. ßHere, monks, the not learned ordinary man who has not seen noble ones or heard their Teaching, not trained and not clever in their Teaching, has not seen Great Beings, or heard their Teaching, not trained and not clever in their Teaching, reflects, `Matter from self, or a material self, or in self matter, or in matter self.' That matter changes, and grief, lament, unpleasantness, displeasure, and distress arise to him.
7. ßHe reflects, `Feelings from self, or a feeling self, or in self feelings, or in feelings self.' His feelings change, and grief, lament, unpleasantness, displeasure, and distress arise to him.
8. ßHe reflects, `Perceptions from self, or a perceiving self, or in self perceptions, or in perceptions self. His perceptions change and grief, lament, unpleasantness, displeasure, and distress arise
9. ßHe reflects, `Intentions from self, or an intending self, or in self intentions, or in intentions self.' His intentions change and grief, lament, unpleasantness, displeasure, and distress arise.
10. ßHe reflects, `Consciousness from self, or a conscious self, or in self consciousness, or in consciousness self.' His consciousness changes, and grief, lament, unpleasantness, displeasure, and distress arise.
11. ßMonks, knowing the impermanence, change, loss of interest, and cessation of that matter, in the past and also at present as it really is, with right wisdom the grief, lament, unpleasantness, displeasure, and distress fade. He is not worried with that fading and abides pleasantly. The monk abiding pleasantly is said has become suitable by that means.

(45) Aniccatà I Ý Impermanence I
1. I heard thus. At one time the Blessed One was living in the monastery offered by Anàthapiõóika in Jeta's grove in Sàvatthi.
2. From there the Blessed One addressed the monks:
3. ßMonks, matter is impermanent. That which is impermanent is unpleasant. That which is unpleasant is not self. That which is not self is not mine, I am not in it and is not my self. This should be seen as it really is with right wisdom. When this is seen as it really is, with right wisdom, the mind looses interest and finds release without desires.
4.-7. ßMonks, feelings, perceptions, intentions, and consciousness are impermanent, those which are impermanent are unpleasant. Those which are unpleasant are not self. Those which are not self are not mine. I am not in them and they are not my self. This should be seen as it really is with right wisdom. When this is seen as it really is, with right wisdom, the mind looses interest and finds release without desires.
8. ßMonks, when the monk's mind looses interest and finds release without desires in the element of matter, in the element of feelings, in the element of perceptions, in the element of intentions and the element of consciousness, the release gets established and happiness gets established without worries. The not worried one is finally extinguished and he knows, `Birth is destroyed, the holy life is lived to the end and there is nothing more to wish.'û

When this is seen as it really is, with right wisdom, the mind looses interest and finds release without desires.
8. ßMonks, when the monk sees this as it really is with right wisdom, the mind does not speculate about the past. When there are no speculations of the past, he has no speculations of the future. When there are no speculations of the future, he does not hold fast, looses interest, and is released from matter, feelings, perceptions, intentions, and consciousness without desires. The release gets established and happiness gets established without worries. The not worried is finally extinguished and he knows, `Birth is destroyed, the holy life is lived to the end and there is nothing more to wish.'û

(47) Samanupassnà Ý Reflections
1. I heard thus. At one time the Blessed One was living in the monastery offered by Anàthapiõóika in Jeta's grove in Sàvatthi.
2. From there the Blessed One addressed the monks:
3. ßMonks, whoever recluses or brahmins reflecting the various reflections of the self, reflect on the five holding masses in one or another way.
4. ßWhat five?
ßMonks, the not learned ordinary man who has not seen noble ones, or heard their Teaching, not trained and not clever in their Teaching, has not seen Great Beings, or heard their Teaching, not trained and not clever in their Teaching, reflect `Matter from self, or a material self, or in self matter, or in matter self.' Reflect, `Feelings from self, or a feeling self, or in self feelings, or in feelings self.'
ßReflect, `Perceptions from self, or a perceiving self, or in self perceptions or in perceptions self.' Reflect, `Intentions from self, or an intending self, or in self intentions, or in intentions self.' Reflect, `Consciousness from self, or a conscious self, or in self consciousness, or in consciousness self.' Thus with this same reflection he concludes `I am'.
5. ßMonks, concluding `I be' he approaches the five mental faculties, the mental faculty, of the eye, of the ear, of the nose, of the tongue, and the mental faculty of the body.
6. ßMonks, there is the mind, ideas, and the element of knowledge. The ordinary person touched by ignorance and feeling in accordance, it occurs to him `I be', or `This is my self,' or `I will be,' or `I will not be,' or `I will be material,' or `I will be immaterial,' or `I will be perceptive,' or `I will be not perceptive,' or `I will be neither perceptive nor non-perceptive.'
7. ßMonks, he settles in those five mental faculties, as for the learned noble disciple, his ignorance faded and knowledge arisen. it does not occur to him `I be', or `This is my self,' or `I will not be,' or `I will be material,' or `I will be immaterial,' or `I will be perceptive,' or `I will be not perceptive,' or `I will be neither perceptive nor non-perceptive.'

4. ßSoõa, if recluses and brahmins formed out of impermanent, unpleasant, changing matter were to reflect, `I am superior, equal, or inferior,' it is not knowing things as they really are.

ßThat which is impermanent, is it unpleasant or pleasant?û
ßVenerable sir, it is unpleasant.û
ßThat which is impermanent, unpleasant, and a changing thing, is it suitable to be reflected, ``It is mine, I am there, it is my self'?'û
ßThat is not so, venerable sir.û
15. ßSoõa, are feelings permanent or impermanent?û
ßVenerable sir, they are impermanent.û
ßThose which are impermanent, are they unpleasant or pleasant?û
ßVenerable sir, they are unpleasant.û
ßThose which are impermanent, unpleasant, changing things, are they suitable to be reflected as, `They are mine, I am they, they are my self'?û
ßThat is not so, venerable sirû
16-17 Soõa, are perceptions and intentions permanent or impermanent?û
ßVenerable sir, they are impermanent.û
ßThat which are impermanent, are they unpleasant or pleasant?û
ßVenerable sir, they are unpleasant.û
ßThose which are impermanent, unpleasant and changing, are they suitable to be reflected, they are mine, I am there, they are my self?û

20.-22. ßMonks, whatever feelings and whatever perceptions and whatever intentions in the past, future, or at present, internal or external, rough or fine, unexalted or exalted, far or near, they are not mine, I am not there, they are not my self.
23. ßMonks, whatever consciousness in the past, future, or at present, internal or external, rough or fine, unexalted or exalted, far or near, is not mine, I am not there, it is not my self.
24. ßSoõa, the learned noble disciple seeing it thus turns from matter, turns from feelings, turns from perceptions, turns from intentions and turns from consciousness. Turning looses interest. Loosing interest is released and knowledge arises I am released. He knows, `Birth is destroyed, the holy life is lived to the end, duties are done, and there is nothing more to wish.'û
